    ALKU calls me daily, often multiple times per day for the past several years. I've asked multiple people to remove me from the call list but they are never able to, nor are they able to help in any meaningful way. Only a phone number with nobody answering or able to leave a voicemail is available.

    I have not heard from the business in response to my complaint. However, they have continued their daily solicitation calls to me. Each of these callers are unaware of the situation and continue to be without any means of helping.

    Please see the attached screenshot of ALKU calling me again on July 17th 2023. This is evidence that the business (ALKU) has not done what they claimed in the response to this complaint and have not adequately addressed the issue, as they continue to call me routinely.   A phone number from "*******, **" has always been the source of these calls (100% of the time), and because it is always different, I am unable to block the caller.

    *****, thank you for reaching out. Your contact information was removed immediately following your previous request. We have confirmed through our systems that the number calling you is not associated with anyone working at ALKU. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you are facing. We thank you for following up on this.

    Given the calls have reduced to 1x per week and no longer leaving voicemails, I cannot take your word as truth. Suggest providing objective evidence of the system updates and call/no-call policies to demonstrate the issue is resolved without additional time for me to collect data on the continued calls. Otherwise, additional time is required to collect evidence of the continued calls and their source.

    Alku got my information off publicly available databases before I removed my phone number and email. I have requested multiple times - in email and on the phone - for their recruiters to remove me from their database. They do not listen and continue to call. I was called again today around noon by an Alku head hunter, and I told them to leave me alone. This is at least the 4th time I am telling and emailing Alku to stop soliciting.

    Representatives of this company have called me each day for about 18 months. I have spoken to multiple representatives and told them to stop harrassing me; however, I still receive a call on my desk phone and personal cell phone in successive order. Most calls are now received as "Anonymous" in an effort to bypass the 10+ numbers I have personally blocked. I have even had some numbers spoofed to appear to be local to my area. They have called me outside business hours and on the weekend and they have even gone so far as to call other colleagues on my team in an effort to speak with me. I am reporting this in an effort to get ALKU to cease and desist from calling my personal cell phone.

    It looks like Alku has recruited army of people to keep calling everyone in their database for getting candidates for jobs, I get calls every other day from different peoples trying to get my details to place me. This is happening for last few years, I requested every recruiter to take me off the list as I am not in the market but I find some other person from Alku reaching out, it is frustrating asking every one to take me off their contact list.

    They have been harassing me for 3 years, calling me multiple times a week, if I don't pick up they call immediately again. I block their number, someone else calls from a difference number. I blocked their email and report spam, I still get emails. I've spoken 10+ times to get removed from their calling address and email list and they WILL NOT STOP. Absolutely insane.
